...I think I could appreciate an honest man more than a likable man, too. At least you know exactly what to expect than trying to figure out the intentions later. Especially in a situation like that.

[unrecked]

Yeah. That’s why I liked him. He never tried to pretend he wasn’t an asshole. But—I don’t know, it wasn’t unreasonable. He wasn’t a dick for the hell of it. People just thought he was because he took the options we were supposed to take, and he questioned everything.

I guess it felt familiar. I wasn’t the only one who was the same way.

[guestservices]

I think you can be an asshole and still be reasonable if there's a good reason for you being the way you are. Some people are better at investigating than others.

And...people are drawn to people who think like them. The more you explain it the less I'm surprised.

[unrecked]

[He seems slightly amused by this.]

What's that supposed to mean? Are you calling me shady?

[He does not sound offended.]

[guestservices]

Oh come on. Shady's not quite the word I'd use...

[the implication is there. it's kind of a joke. they don't mind.]

[unrecked]

Alright, smartass.

[He's not mad.]

I guess I can appreciate your honest, too.

[guestservices]

Flattering. Not everyone does, but...I would rather it be that way too.

[unrecked]

[my y]

S'that mean I can dig some answers out of you? [He knows he can't, but he will tease.] I'm going to have to break out the puppy-dog eyes again.

[guestservices]

Don't, you're still not good at it. [haha.] You can always try your luck though.

[unrecked]

Well, you've lucked out. I really don't feel like telling everyone else Aquarius is gone because I killed them with puppy-dog eyes.

[He knocks them on the shoulder gently with the back of a hand, then points at them.]

Don't forget our deal, okay? I'm going to make sure Cloud doesn't have any leaking holes except maybe his eye ones, then I'll probably talk to Clem.

[guestservices]

It's debatable if that would even matter. [but they accept the shoulder-knock and nod in reply to the second statement.]

But sure. A deal's a deal. Go check on both of them...they probably could use it.

[unrecked]

Behave, Water Bearer. See ya around.

[This is, like, the hundredth time he will do this, but he reaches up to tug their hat down a bit over their eyes. But he's already turning to leave.

He gives them time to get the hat up again before he flicks the bottle cap over his shoulder to them with his thumb. Can they catch it?]

[guestservices]

[i will say that even with the hat presumably pulled over their eyes, they do catch the bottle cap. but when jason turns again, they disappear from their spot. bye!]
